Good metabolic health is a human right.

For over a decade, I stood in courtrooms as a legal advocate, fighting to ensure individuals weren't steamrolled by institutional systems. Before that, my career was built on the front lines of social change—first as a Youth and Community worker, then in in substance misuse, followed by a tenure with Citizens Advice.

Through all of it, whether I was challenging local council decisions or navigating complex legal cases, one constant thread remained: I believe in radical, evidence-based advocacy.

I’ve spent my life helping people reclaim their agency from systems designed to oppress them. Now, I bring that same fierce, forensic approach to your health.

I was struggling with stomach issues, low energy and confusion regarding fasting and food groups. I needed direction and a push to explore metabolic health. After working with Kate I feel empowered to make new choices. What I've found is that even small changes make a huge difference. The benefits are incredible - mentally happier, on fire in terms of energy, and no longer feeling asleep and / or having stomach issues. Kate also helped me to see there's no point in beating yourself up over bad choices and tomorrow is another day.

From legal rigor to metabolic science

My transition into metabolic health wasn’t a career pivot—it was the logical next step. I’ve always been a person who demands the truth. 

After my legal training, I learned how to dissect evidence, identify systemic failures, and build a winning case. When I began to experience the exhaustion and cognitive decline that many women are told is ‘just part of ageing,’ I didn't accept the status quo. I built a case for my own recovery.

Metabolic Health Qualifications

I completed my Metabolic Health training with The College of Functional Wellness.

Then I trained under Dr. Ben Bikman, the world-renowned scientist leading the charge on insulin resistance.

More recently I completed Dr Mindy Pelz's Fast Like a Girl training.

I don't rely on wellness trends; I rely on the same rigorous analytical process I used in my legal career: identifying the root cause, analysing the data, and constructing a plan that actually works.

I was struggling with headaches/fatigue/constipation. Since working with Kate my headaches have reduced by 90% and I'm less fatigued by midday. Kate has a wealth of knowledge, understands complex science and she imparts this knowledge in such a sensitive way.

Why my approach is different to other health coaches

I know what it's like to feel controlled by unseen internal forces. When perimenopause arrived, I got agitation, burn out, intense sugar cravings, rumination and a lack of motivation and focus causing me to want to leave my job. Brain fog that made me question my competence, extra weight around my middle, and ADHD symptoms. I'd spent years advocating fiercely for other people but now I had no framework for what was happening to my own body.

So I built one. I've navigated the 'addict brain' personally — the sugar cravings, the dopamine-seeking, the exhaustion that no amount of sleep seemed to fix. When I started treating these not as character failings but as metabolic signals, everything changed.

When you work with me you're reclaiming your autonomy. You're not just 'tired' — you're a person whose biology has been hijacked by a system that profits from your struggles.

I've spent a lifetime fighting for people in the courtroom. Now, I'm here to help you win the most important fight of all: the fight for your own body and mind.

If you're ready to stop 'managing your symptoms’ and start using hard science as your weapon for change, I am here to help you lead the charge.

I had a painful frozen shoulder and was struggling with fatigue. Since following Kate's advice I've found I'm able to cut out snacking or if I do indulge it's healthier. I also now keep my circadian rhythm running like clockwork. I've got the majority of the movement back in my arm. I also have more energy and far better mental health. Kate's advice & encouragement has been invaluable.

Don't let the ‘sickness industry’ win.

If nothing changes, the cycle of inflammation and exhaustion only deepens.
You don't have to accept a life of impending doom and physical pain. You have the power to heal.
